Malfunction of the radiation-warning timer and the 3D-specific interval warning. No 5-minute timer dialogs or beeper will occur until the unit is rebooted.

A version of the dual dispersive electrodes may not be compatible with some electrosurgical generators, placing patients at risk for undetected pad lift and a potential burn.

Vision RT Ltd received three (3) reports from different sites that discovered the following issue, unintended changes were made to planned couch parameters, specifically the couch rotation parameter, during patient set-up for the Optical Surface Monitoring System [OSMS]. 1. CRM 3194, No Serious Injury, No MDR, Aware date: Dec 11, 2015 2. CRM 3321, No Patient Involved, No MDR, Aware date: Jan 19, 2016 3. CRM 4570, No Serious Injury, No MDR, Aware date: March 15, 2016 No patient harm was reported in any of these cases.

The batteries have the potential to overheating, melt or char.

Increase in reports of polymer degradation of the catheter tip, resulting in tip fracture and/or separation. degradation could include loss of device function, separation of a device segment leading to medical intervention, or complications resulting from a separated segment. Such complications include device fragments in the vascular system, genitourinary system, or other soft tissues. Fragments within the vascular system could result in embolization to the heart or lungs, or occluding blood flow to end organs.

Some v2.2.2 upgrade kits include a dialysate mode which not cleared/approved for shipment in the United States

Alere San Diego is initiating a voluntary recall for the Alere INRatio¿/INRatio¿2 PT/INR Monitoring Systems (Test Strips and Meters). This action is being initiated as a result of patients who had a therapeutic or near-therapeutic INR with the Alere INRatio¿/INRatio¿2 PT/INR Monitoring System but a significantly higher INR (outside of therapeutic range) when performed by a central laboratory.
